For some context, it’s because Indian movies were conventionally much longer in length (2.5 to 3 hours). Movies are written to have a cliffhanger at the interval, so much so that it’s sometimes referred to as a meta joke.

Hadn’t heard of it. I’ll check it out, thanks!

and recently made an album using mostly Android,

What did you use? Cubasis? G stomper? Flstudio?

And what part did you give up doing on Android?

I can answer that as an Indian casually in the market for an EV. The infrastructure isn’t really as good as western countries. Charging stations aren’t easy to find outside of major highways, and they aren’t as visible.

For intra-city users:

EVs are considerably more expensive than ICEs and India is a very price-sensitive market. The biggest successes for EVs here are Tata Nexons, for example. The ICE version starts at almost half the price of the EV.

Buyers will compare and run the numbers and unless you use it a lot, it can go either way. That combined with the iffy infrastructure is enough to make many people just go for ICE right now, in the hope that their next car will be an EV, when prices come down and tech is next-gen.

It is bound to happen. Prices are falling and more EVs are on the road, but it hasn’t reached critical mass yet.

Also, BYDs are actually quite expensive here compared to home grown solutions. Check the Tata EV range out.

Another factor that you’re overlooking is that India has a huge market of 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers and mini trucks. That’s a space where EVs make a lot of sense. They pay for themselves the more you use them.

So in food delivery, logistics, courier services etc., there’s already a very noticeable shift in motion, and that’s promising.

That’s only for vehicles. It isn’t the same thing.

SD cards don’t perform wear leveling while ssds do. This is why there are specific SD cards meant for surveillance cameras. They have additional wear levelling circuitry at the expense of speed.

So photographers who fill up their sd cards end up writing over the same spots repeatedly and wear them out.

You probably meant sucrose. Sucralose is a calorie-free sweetener.

Just cause 4. I loved fooling around in JC3 and almost 100%ed it a couple of years back, barring some challenges I couldn’t find. I’ve read so much about 4 being a downgrade that i didn’t bother.

I had it on gamepass though and tried it a week ago. The cut scenes are atrocious but the story is compelling enough, and the villains actually seem more interesting. Other than the graphics, the actual art design is pretty good and it’s a good change of pace through a South American setting.

Edit: pre-coffee words corrected

LosslessCut doesn’t only use lossless codecs. It losslessly cuts video files encoded in lossy codecs.

You’re confusing cause and effect. It’s lossless because it cuts at keyframes and does not re-encode.

If it did what you’re suggesting it wouldn’t be lossless anymore.

More secure: any bootloader tampering happening via physical access to the device will trip the warning.

More compatible: some apps (banks usually) flag an unlocked bootloader as a security threat.

The skybox in E1 is from China FYI! E2 is from Zion National park. So if you really want to, you can explore them :)

A thread on DW with sources.

Others have already recommended it but I want to pitch in; my 8bitdo pro is the best I’ve used (others I have are the DS4, xbox, a few Logitechs including the submarine one, and a fancy-ass Astro).

Also, this feels like blogspam with a short summary and a link to the actual source. Original Verge article here.

I default to nanoreview when I do a Google search. It’s pretty comprehensive and easy to scan.

That’s an interesting example. Here in my city there was a case of a transport officer crashing his car into someone. He smelled of alcohol and was slurring and it was in the news cycle with great outrage and irony.

A few days later news broke that he had died of diabetes-related complications. Apparently the smell was not alcohol, it was ketones from him being hyperglycemic.

Going back to your “standards” statement, for an individual it would make sense not to get into a car this person drives. At the same time it makes sense for the court not to convict him until he is proven guilty. Both standards have their place and rightfully so.

Thanks. I have a pretty old install so my module list is a relic of the time but it makes sense why it still works for me. I’ll edit.

There are workarounds:

Install magisk, add the app to the zygisk denylist before first run.

Install universal safetynet fix and magisk hide props config (modules for magisk).

For some apps, you may have to install them in island so that they can’t detect the magisk app.
